1 Introduction

Thank you for purchasing a telescopic camera PCE-IVE 320 / PCE-IVE 330 from PCE Instruments.
The telescopic camera allows the user to get new insights of the places that are difficult to access or are
located high. Due to the telescopic stick of up to 2.3 m, the camera is ideal for maintenance and
inspections. With the help of the device, you can detect the problem spots. Use in the dark is also
possible due to the LEDs that are attached to the camera head. A very useful feature of the telescopic
camera is that you can make videos and take pictures using the digital recorder. Thus, they can be used
for the analysis later.
